Ever wonder if your family history is accurate? Patti did and she contacted Chris at NAGC to help her sort out facts from fiction about her great-grandmother Anna Sofie Rebekah Erickson. Patti gave Chris all the data she had (and she did have a lot). Her grandmother had started doing research in the 70s and had contacted NAGC way back then. Patti will display her Family Tree and a few stories & Chris will present the discoveries made during the research.
Chris Klauer is the Senior Researcher at the Norwegian American Genealogical Center & Naeseth Library and a member of Mandt Lodge. She has been researching her family since middle school and research in the United States and Norway.
Patti Norland Boelsing is a member of Mandt Lodge and a volunteer at NAGC&NL, the granddaughter of Lucretia Atkinson Halverson and great granddaughter of Anna Sofie Rebekah Erickson.
Refreshments will be served! Everyone is welcome and no reservations are needed!
